Frequently Asked Questions
What is an HP 45 inkjet addressing system?
A thermal inkjet addresser that uses HP 45 cartridges, where the printhead is part of the cartridge. The TeslaJet NP45 runs HP 45a cartridges for the most economical, low-maintenance everyday addressing; the FN series uses Funai cartridges for speeds up to 400 feet per minute.
Can one addressing printer run both aqueous and solvent ink?
Yes. TeslaJet cartridges snap in and out in seconds, so you run aqueous ink on paper and mailers and solvent ink on coated stock, plastic, or metal on the same unit with no flushing.
What print widths are available on a thermal inkjet addresser?
TeslaJet configurations run 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 4.0 inches, or custom widths by stitching half-inch heads together, so you only pay for the width you use.
Can thermal inkjet print on uneven or raised surfaces?
Yes, with the TeslaJet AJAX series, which has a 12 millimeter throw distance for boxes, raised edges, and uneven packaging. It replaces continuous inkjet coders in many of those applications.
Do you sell used or refurbished TeslaJet systems?
Sometimes. Mailtech takes trade-ins and refurbishes addressing systems on our floor in Deer Park, NY, and we stock HP 45 cartridges and printhead wipes locally for any TeslaJet. Call to ask what is available right now.
